THE PRODUCTIZED-JUDGMENT PLANNER  —  an asset that earns without your hours
From "The One-Person AI Business — Advanced", Chapter 4
================================================================

Don't sell INFORMATION (abundant, free, a race to the bottom). Sell your
JUDGMENT — the decisions, frameworks and done-for-you thinking only your
position lets you offer — built once, sold many times, needing none of your recurring hours for each additional sale. "No added labor" means no added recurring time; the
one-time build is real work you make pay back across many sales.


STEP 1 · THE JUDGMENT TEST
----------------------------------------------------------------
Could a smart stranger with a search engine reproduce it in an afternoon?
  [ ] Yes → it's information; it'll struggle to compete on volume. Go deeper.
  [ ] No, it encodes calls only my position/track record let me make → judgment.
  The asset (template / playbook / diagnostic / decision kit): ______________


STEP 2 · THE ECONOMICS, HONESTLY  (an investment, not free money)
----------------------------------------------------------------
  Price:                                        $______
  Contribution per sale:                        $______
    (= price − payment fees − a refund reserve; use YOUR dated, in-country fee)
  One-time BUILD hours:                         ______ hrs
    (an investment, tracked SEPARATELY — never in the leverage ratio)
  Value of an hour of your time (your ratio):   $______/hr
  → BUILD COST = build hours × $/hr:            $______
  → BREAK-EVEN SALES = build cost ÷ contribution: ______ sales
    (Note the units: COST in $ ÷ contribution in $ = a count of sales. Never
     divide hours by dollars.)
  Recurring hours/mo (support + upkeep):        ______ hrs
  ⚠️ Break-even must also cover MAINTENANCE, because judgment dates: add the
     refresh hours (× $/hr) to the build cost before you divide. Budget the
     upkeep, retire stale assets, and favor judgment that dates SLOWLY.


STEP 3 · VALIDATE BEFORE YOU BUILD  (money down, not nods)
----------------------------------------------------------------
Pre-sell to a slice of your audience: pre-order / deposit / paid waitlist,
refundable if it doesn't ship. Build only if enough put money down.
  Pre-sell result: ______ committed  → build? yes / no
  (Money taken is a liability to FULFILL, not revenue to spend. A human handles
   any refund — the money rule holds.)


STEP 4 · THE TWO-SIDED STOP RULE  (bounds BOTH failure modes)
----------------------------------------------------------------
  "If it hasn't cleared ______ sales by [date], OR it needs more than ______
   hours/mo to keep alive, I STOP building on it and take the lesson."


THE FORCING COMMITMENT  (dated)
----------------------------------------------------------------
  "On [date] I shipped ________ at $____, productizing my judgment on ________.
   Build ~____ hrs; break-even ~____ sales; recurring ~____ hrs/mo. Stop rule:
   [N sales by date] OR [max hrs/mo]. I'll track my leverage ratio AND
   subscription retention before/after, to catch cannibalization."

================================================================
  Yours to keep — free, and no strings attached.
